I have been trying to swim in all of London's lidos this year. London Fields is my last. It is nice - but not my favourite! Getting there isn't so easy. I took an overground train to Hackney Central and walked for about 15 minutes to get there. The lido is located on the edge of London Fields - a large common area. The pool is heated that's nice and 50m long - but only 6 lanes wide. It was pleasantly busy when I visited on a mid week afternoon and there was a limited, but adequate, area for sunbathing. There is also a cafe serving drinks and snacks. It's a nice place with helpful London Fields but Parliament Hill near the London Fields pools is much larger and colder! Tooting Bec is massive but also unheated. Charlton Lido is a long way, out but heated - and superb in every way. Brockwell Park at Herne Hill is not as well maintained as it could be London Fields lockers, algae on the pool bottom and is unheated. But it is a nice pool. Swimming in the Serpentine is fun but only open in the summer and of course the Hampstead pools are fantastic - London Fields unheated. Happy swimming everybody!

Reasonably priced, clean and well attended, the Lido was a great experience. Even the water temperature was right. I didn't hang around when I had finished, but if I had the time, the London Fields looked very pleasant too. If London Fields lived locally, I could make a habit of swimming here.
